Silverleaf18 here you go sorry lol
this is a Christmas song/poem I wrote just recently :)
There was a girl,
A little younger than me,
Betrothed to a man named Joseph;
Her name was Mary.
There was nothing extraordinary
About her, she was just an ordinary
Girl, a little younger than me.
She wasn't holy,
Especially smart
Or especially pretty,
Or educated in the arts.
There was nothing extraordinary
About her, she was just an ordinary
Girl, a little younger than me.
She
Sinned
Every day.
She had to be told
To obey.
She
Cried,
And she laughed.
She could be sweet or full of wrath.
For...
There was nothing extraordinary
About her, she was just an ordinary
Girl, a little younger than me.
Then one day—
Joy to the world—
An angel came
To Mary's door
And told her she
Would give birth
To the Wonderful
Counselor
Prince of Peace
Lord of lords
King of kings
To be adored
God in flesh
To dwell on earth
And all because she would birth
This baby.
Yes, Mary.
Even though...
There was nothing extraordinary
About her, she was just an ordinary
Girl, a little younger than me.
Mary was frightened,
And she was confused.
How could a girl
Like her be used?
A wretch to birth
The holy one;
The sinner brings forth
The Almighty God.
Oh, how could it be?
Nothing extraordinary
How could it be?
Just an ordinary
How could it be?
And only
A little younger than me.
